FRUIT JUICES
French Fruit Juices and Nectars
Fruit juices are the perfect drink to start the day with a boost of natural sugars. Italians like to drink fresh juices during work breaks, and children take juices to school for snacks.
Atelier Patrick Font is the story of a French family business specialized in the production of high-quality fruit juices and nectars. Based in Tartaras, in the countryside near Lyon, Patrick Font took over his parents' farm in 1986 and has been transforming it into a craft workshop since 1993. The area of origin is what makes the juice production special; the hillside cultivation and excellent soil allow the fruits and vegetables to release all their flavors.
Sustainable farming as a mission
The selection of fruits and vegetables is based on three main criteria: local provenance, variety and seasonal harvest. The priority is given to local fruit because the company is based in an agricultural area rich in fruit and vegetable crops. As for the tropical range, Patrick often visits suppliers abroad to select the best fruits.
Patrick Font's juices and nectars represent the authenticity of taste: fruits and vegetables left to ripen in the sun and grown using sustainable agriculture. Fruits are processed during their natural ripening period because the priority is to work with fruits picked in the right season to preserve their properties.
